safety features to support the safe delivery of angiographic uid media,
including the following:
• Air column detect sensor to aid the user in the detection of air being
introduced into patient tubing.
• Contrast sensor for detection of contrast in the contrast tubing.
• Manifold valve sensor to detect manifold position.
• Syringe valve sensor for detection of the syringe valve ball position.
• Luminescent backlight to facilitate visual detection of air.
Mounting
e injector head can be mounted in the following ways:
• On a movable pedestal cart, with the control panel mounted onto the
